It draws global lessons about space missions and the trends we can expect from different nations in the next decade and beyond. Space exploration has become increasingly dependent on cooperation between countries and private enterprise, and this book addresses issues such as whether rival countries can work together and whether private enterprise can provide the same expertise and safety standards as NASA. Written by a former NASA Aerodynamics Officer, the second edition provides updated information on U.S. space policy and the formation of the Space Force. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                                                            \u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\\n                              \u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 272 pages\u003cbr\u003e\\n                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 29 November 2020\u003cbr\u003e\\n                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Springer Nature Switzerland AG\u003cbr\u003e\\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis comprehensive book delves into the intricate tapestry of the United States' space programs, exploring both their triumphs and failures in order to ascertain the key ingredients that constitute a successful space policy. Drawing upon the rich and complex history of NASA and the space industry, it offers invaluable insights into the realm of space missions and the emerging trends that we can expect from various nations in the coming decade and beyond.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpace exploration has witnessed a remarkable shift in recent years, with an increasing reliance on international collaboration and the active participation of private enterprise. This book thus addresses critical questions such as: Can rival countries forge successful partnerships in the realm of space exploration? Can private companies replace NASA and uphold the same level of expertise and safety standards? Authored by a former NASA Aerodynamics Officer with extensive experience at Houston Mission Control, the second edition of this book offers a timely and updated perspective on U.S. space policy, encompassing the latest developments, including the newly articulated strategy to prioritize a return to the Moon before embarking on a journey to Mars. Furthermore, it delves into the formation of the Space Force as a military unit and explores the latest advancements in the private sector.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOverall, this thought-provoking resource serves as a valuable tool for space industry professionals and space enthusiasts alike, providing a comprehensive and insightful examination of the United States' space programs and their profound impact on the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 564g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 168 x 240 x 15 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783030568344\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2nd ed. 2021\\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Linda Dawson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44103190413562,"sku":"9783030568344","price":24.58,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/f5a6f544c35ea1ffa6383c7d91fe76b3.jpg?v=1621191454","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/politics-and-perils-of-space-exploration-who-will-compete-who-will-dominate","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
